Walmart FatBikes?

[outskirtscustoms]

YES!!! I have been waiting for somebody to make a rip off of a Surly Pugsley! Only bad thing is no gears, the funky handlebars, and coaster brake. I might have to get one and do some part swapping, new handlebars with a little more rise, freewheel, maybe disk brakes, and maybe swap those tires for some BIG FAT LARRY's

Well, I bought these bars from DoubleNickle at the Get-A-Grip show.

But I don't have a BMX bike to put them on......WRONG! Just bought a red Fatbike. I was gonna wait, but didn't want Walmart to run out or suddenly raise the price on them!

I'm thinking I'll paint the rims black and find a better seat, maybe a black Gyes, we'll see.

I'll let you know when it drops (BTW shipping to my house....FREE)

Cheers,
Dr. T

I once worked at my local Wal-Mart and got discounts on stuff, it's a shame I'm not employed there anymore

OK. . . . money is not an issue. Why do I want one of these bikes? Really ,for me . . . . I don't get it??

I'm with you. Just not feeling it. :|
Maybe if I lived near a beach or something. I have enough bikes that don't get enough miles on them.

Having said that however, it does look like a pretty good deal if the quality of parts are decent and it's what your looking for.

Just received notice that my bike has shipped. I did the store pickup option and they expect it to be here sometime between Thursday and next Wednesday.

Walmart will for free, you just have to buy the bike.

This is what I've been looking at since the 22nd. :lol:

I like the word "Anticipated." :roll:

So technically it hasn't been picked up yet, but somehow it will be here tomorrow.

Had to laugh at one of the stories in Mtbr.com's e-newsletter today. :lol:

Also...we may get lucky and not have to worry about spider tires after all.

AWESOME! I was kind of wondering if it would actually be those tires since that is sort of the "signature" thing on the Spider fat tire cruiser. I should know in a few days!

 

[yoothgeye]

That bike on eBay also has the front load stem that comes on a lot of the Mongoose and Next BMX bikes... it's actually the one I was planning on swapping onto it.

Very cool, I went ahead and put in a bid on that one. Maybe I'll get it for $100. LOL

 

[Rat Rod]

Mine now shows that it's in Chicago and will arrive on Wednesday. :wink:

 

[yoothgeye]

OK, let's all make a pact that whoever gets theirs first will wait till the rest of us have ours, then we can all open them at the same time. :mrgreen:

 

[Rat Rod]

I agree to no such deal. :lol:

I guess that would disappoint those people buying them to make a spiderweb themed bike.

 

[Rat Rod]

Just got a message back from that Ebay seller...he said that those tires in his photo are what came on the bike.
